They went into jail at a moment where there was a sense of hope for the Russian opposition, with alternative media outlets opening, that some kind of change was possible. They came out of jail at a time where it had become clear that was not so. The situation has deteriorated significantly with a massive clampdown on all opponents of the regime, the stepping up of propaganda around the annexation of Crimea and the war on Ukraine, and Putin becoming more popular and stronger than ever. However, even if the movement they were part of did not achieve its goals, of some kind of liberalization, I do think that, as a potential inspiration, what they did cannot be erased. Pop Grenade’ is something completely different, however. In the book, Collin combines autobiographical moments with the events of the recent past enhanced with descriptions from his notes, newspaper articles, books, conversations and television reports. All these fragments have been integrated to convey a sense of these musical events and their creators.
